Chrome kick stand for 96 Royal Star

[flyfshn]

Went riding today and made a left when I heard a scraping noise. I looked down and it looked like the kick stand was not up all the way. Pulled over, had my daughter steady the bike, so I could check it out, when I grabed on to the part you put your foot on to lower the stand, it snapped off in my hand! In order to put the stand down, I have to have someone hold the bike, so I can reach under the bike and pull the stand down. A buddy of mine said he could weld it back on, but I am wondering if it will hold. Any idea where I can get a replacement at a reasonable price?

Have your buddy weld it with a stainless rod then buff it out. The chrome on these kickstands won't pop off like most chrome when heat is applied.

Is the side stand the same as the RSV? If it is then there are a few members that have triked so would have the stand available... Bongobobny comes to mind.

The RSV kickstand is about 2" longer than the origional Royal Star stand.
